Breaking a delusion of cause and effect

Human beings tend to define themselves. They sum themselves up. They present themselves with a picture of what they are.

They may not do this with precision, but they do it. And the common
factor is all about limitation because, after all, definitions involve
drawing boundaries. Definitions describe what is inside those
boundaries and exclude what’s outside. That’s limitation.

The most pervasive way this process is carried out is through making
“the past” the great determinant of the present, as if the past is a
series of links that, naturally, shape the ongoing Now.

“The past adds up to the present.”

Cause and effect.

It’s a nice neat package.

And if past history isn’t enough, people can resort to a vague idea
of genetic determination. Or inherent and permanent IQ. Or the
pressure exerted on them by their environment. More cause and effect.

Finally, you can add a cherry on the cake: open possibility for the
future, if it exists at all, comes from the universe, or The Force, or
the cosmos, squeezed out of a tube like toothpaste and passed to a
person by the grace of a Something that responds to good behavior and
patience…

The whole notion of cause and effect as a chain is a reality that is
perceived at a certain level—and what breaks the chain is entering into a
level where that rule doesn’t apply.

This higher level flows from creation.

This is where creating and imagination and greater energy combine to produce new realities.

This is where and how a life undergoes a great and unprecedented change.

Societies and civilizations operate within a context of cause and
effect. They thrive, to the extent they do, on that principle. They
promote the principle and educate according to it.

But societies and civilizations, sooner or later, abandon the
individual in favor of the group. They explain this preference in many
ways, just as a drug addict spools out his reasons for using drugs.

However, the individual can take action on a very different basis.

Imagination has nothing to do with conventional cause and effect. It
isn’t interested in adhering to sequential time or “the one and only
space.”

Because of this, people believe imagination doesn’t really fit into the world.

People are disposed to using imagination as if it were a
cause-and-effect blueprint that mirrors physical reality. This is
backwards. Imagination creates its own worlds and these worlds can be
fashioned without such limits.

Energy-imagination-creation is the jumping-off point from traditional cause-and-effect.

This is why, ultimately, philosophy takes a backseat to imagination.
Philosophy is an attempt to sum up What Exists. Imagination creates
new shapes that didn’t exist before.

Logic, which is an indispensable tool for grasping reality at the
level of perceiving cause and effect, may state that A implies B, but
imagination can say A implies Z or A implies B, Z, and Q.

If physical reality could send a message it would be, “Here I stand.
I am a chain of cause and effect, and you are part of that chain.”

The individual says, “I create beyond that message.”

The individual can delete his own knowledge of what his imagination
does, and this is what is meant by self-hypnosis. Self-hypnosis
operates by inducing frequencies and vibrations that bring on amnesia.
It’s a parlor trick that shrinks space.

What you imagine and create…you can then insert into the world, and
even though the world may view that creation within its hypnotic context
of cause and effect, that isn’t how it was produced by you.

The physics of energy, space, and time works the territory of various
limited types of causation, even when it is speculating about quantum
events. Your imagination goes farther. Much farther.

Consider this whole business as a stage play, in which imagination
creates reality…and then the human being WHO DID THE IMAGINING steps
down his own perception and views what he did within a self-hypnotic
space of cause and effect AND PRETENDS REALITY IS COMING FROM SOMEPLACE
ELSE.
It’s a joke. A cosmic joke.

When you sleep at night, and dream, when the chains come loose for a little while, you are laughing at the punch line.

If you care to admit it.

From this point of view, the whole concept of Collectivism, The
Group, or as I like to call it, the Great Societal Cheese Melt, takes on
an interesting aspect:

“Let’s all (each one of us) pretend (imagine) the individual doesn’t
exist. Let’s pretend (imagine) we’re all a great Glob. Then let’s step
back and view what we’ve done and pretend (imagine) The Universe or
some other Force created, in its wisdom, The Collective.”

I pick this example because it underlies the whole effort of Globalism to institute One Planet under One Guiding Hand.

Globalism depends, for its success, on the acceptance of Glob-u-lism.

The recent history of phony epidemics has yet another motive: to
convince us that “we’re all in the same boat,” we’re all equally under
threat, we all need The Guiding Hand to tell us how we should respond.

These phony epidemics also justify the expansion of the Surveillance
State: “We’re all in this together. We need more tracking to identify
‘carriers of the virus’ in our midst, so we can purify The Collective.”

Many, many government programs and edicts are designed to bolster the concept of the Collective. That is their underlying goal.

At the root is a psychology of the group: the individual is a
fiction, an outmoded concept that may have been useful at one time, but
has no currency now—because we have ascended to a “higher state of
consciousness.”

This is the pernicious, driving psychology of the 21st century.

Any individual who is seeking an out and an excuse can surrender to the Glob.

This is the wider meaning of the preposterous concept used to justify universal vaccination: “herd immunity.”

“Yes, welcome. Join us. You’re now protected because you’re part of us. You’re absorbed in the Great Body.”

Quotes

"There is beauty in truth, even if it's painful. Those who lie, twist life so that it looks tasty to the lazy, brilliant to the ignorant, and powerful to the weak. But lies only strengthen our defects. They don't teach us anything, help anything, fix anything or cure anything. Nor do they develop one's character, one's mind, one's heart or one's soul." Jose Harris
